On page 23, following last paragraph under the headinginsert the following: Briquette machine,1 Five briquettes are made from each test sample and allowed todry 20 hours in air and 4 hours in a hot-air bath at 200° F. Aftercooling 20 minutes in a desiccator, they are tested by impact in amachine especially designed for the
